UnrealEngine-nvrtx-_Caustics Error

I want to use Caustics, and I downloaded UnrealEngine-NvRTX_Caustics-5.2, UnrealEngine-nvrtx-5.4, and UnrealEngine-NvRTX_Caustics-5.1 from GitHub, but I can’t open the editor.

My download steps:

  1. Download the ZIP from GitHub
  2. Extract it to the desktop
  3. Run Setup.bat
  4. Run GenerateProjectFiles.bat
  5. Open UE5.sln
  6. In the right-side panel, go to Engine > UE5 and right-click to build.

I am using Visual Studio Community 2022 (17.11.4).
I have installed the following components:

I had the exact same problem. Wondering if Visual studio 2019 is the answer to this… even if it says UE 5.2 is officially using VS2022. Would love to know what’s the solution, or even better, what are the plans for the Caustics branch regarding UE 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5.
